As an American, I take great offense to your comments. You have no credible sources to back up your statistics.

SUVs: German car companies (BMW, Mercedes Benz) both produce SUVs. It is not just an American problem.

Hybrid Cars: Quick tip buddy, they already exist in America, and were developed in Japan. Dont hand me that "we Americans dont want them" crap. Two models exist: The Toyota Prius, and the Honda Insight, and both get exceptional MPGs. Or, you could do one of the most sensible things, and buy a motorcycle which typically gets both better gas mileage (mine gets 4 times better gas mileage than a Honda Civic), and has a much better power to weigh ratio (see, fuel efficent vehicles can be fun!).

Global Warming: Hello? ICE AGE? The earth has been warming since the last ICE AGE, by the way. That's why the Ice Age stopped. Thats also why people can survive in Siberia, Canada, Alaska, Norway, Sweden, etc. And as Ven'Tatsu said in the previous reply, we cannot even say that humanity is the cause of it. Certainly we didnt cause the end of the ice age, however many thousands of years ago this occured.

Thanks for playing.

• Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
• Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:

  <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>

• Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
• Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
